Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) and HRT

The adverse outcome of large clinical trials like the Women’s Health
Initiative confirms that Premarin™ is unhealthy not HRT. Based on information I
gathered from published data on what is in Premarin™ I have asked Senator Patty
Murray to open an investigation in violations of informed consent laws in the
recruitment of the women for the WHI. The recruited women were given Premarin™
which raised their estrogen levels to at least 15 times higher than a normal
menstrual cycle. By giving the recruited women Premarin™ they were trading
hypogonadism (medical term for menopause) for hyperestrogenism (abnormally high
levels of estrogen). Not telling the recruited women that they were trading one
disease state for another violated their right to know what was being given to
them as participants in a clinical trial. If you want answers to the questions I
have asked then let Senator Murray
know.
